1/ Didn’t get to finish the full thread last week, so here it is again: the imperial ideology of Eugenics from the British Empire to today.

This clip is from Pilger's superb Utopia: johnpilger.com/videos/utopia.

This thread explains the ideological origins of this appalling racism.

2/ The ideology of Empire is Eugenics. Transhumanism is a modern branch of Eugenics advocated by Jeffrey Epstein. He held meetings with famous scientists & academics to discuss his ideas. Apparently, he wanted to "seed the human race with his DNA". nytimes.com/2019/07/31/bus…

3/ Epstein is not alone and just a recent example of the powerful dabbling in this pseudo science. The influence of Eugenicists on Western imperialism is longstanding & widespread. Of note are the views of Cecil John Rhodes, who many regard as the architect of Apartheid...

4/ Rhodes believed in the superiority of certain races & that the dominance of the Anglo Saxon race would lead to the advancement of humanity as a whole. pages.uoregon.edu/kimball/Rhodes…

5/ To further the aims of Anglo Saxon world dominance Rhodes envisioned the recapturing of North America by the British Empire. Other initiatives proposed by Rhodes included the evolution of the Empire into British led "commonwealth".

6/ It is tempting to dismiss this as a "conspiracy theory" but the machinations of Cecil Rhodes and his successors in the Round Table Movement are in fact simply a well documented conspiracy. How successful they were is open to debate...

7/ Similar ideas were shared by Americans. A notable example is JD Rockefeller, the Grandfather of the founder of the Trilateral Commission, of which Epstein was a member. The Rockefeller Foundation funded what became the Nazi Eugenics program: historynewsnetwork.org/article/1796

8/ Of course, thanks to work from @Labourheartlands, we know that Epstein was once a member of the Trilateral Commission and #Starmer is a current member: labourheartlands.com/sir-keir-starm…

9/ There is another British connection to Eugenics Movement: the Harriman Family. historynewsnetwork.org/article/1796.

10/ Averell Harriman (November 15, 1891 – July 26, 1986) served as Secretary of Commerce under President Harry S. Truman. Harriman was also a friend of Winston Churchill, another believer in white “Anglo-Saxon superiority”academia.edu/29080587/The_F…

11/ During the war, Harriman was in a relationship with Churchill’s daughter in law, Pamela. They later married. Harriman, heir to the Eugenics-sponsoring Harriman Railroad Fortune was instrumental in establishing the Marshall Plan.

12/ The Marshall Plan was a key component of the Truman Doctrine, through which the United States stepped into the void left by the British Empire, which could no longer ford to finance a global military presence: millercenter.org/the-presidency….

13/ The Truman doctrine was launched in 1947, following Churchill’s 1946 Iron Curtain speech, in which he implored the United States to take a primary role in world affairs.

14/ The Marshall Plan established the Eurodollar market (the flow of American dollars outside the USA), the most significant portion of which is administered via the City of London and connected tax havens.

15/ At the same time in Europe, Britain was forging alliances that would eventually spawn the EU and NATO: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Western_U… and establish the postwar settlement.

16/ Harriman’s influence on the postwar settlement was big. He is regarded as one of the author’s of the policy of Containment, which dominated the United State’s response to the Soviet Union throughout the Cold War & Churchill's Fulton address essentially proposed.

17/ Today, we have the AUKUS treaty: the Anglo-Saxon countries standing together as a response to the economic rise of China. The dominant financial centre’s in the world today are New York and London.

18/ Cecil Rhodes vision of a world dominated by an Anglo Saxon “master race” may not have come to pass in exactly the way he envisioned but there is a direct connection between his ideas and the ideology that underpins the present world-order.

19/ Epstein Eugenicist views are not an aberration. They are an outgrowth of the mentality that justified atrocities of the British Empire. Western domination does not equal freedom but submission to a system and capitalist ideology based on racism and exploitation.

20/20 People may want to reflect on this before they support the next NATO intervention undertaken in the name of defending “freedom”. To those doubt this analysis, would recommend this excellent academic paper: academia.edu/29080587/The_F…
